Flux File Data
Daily Solar Flux data reported from the Solar Flux file. F10.7 index is a measure of the noise level generated by the sun at a wavelength of 10.7 cm at the earth's orbit. Ap is an index of planetary geomagnetic activity based on data from a set of specific stations. Kp is a quasi-logarithmic planetary index ranging from 0 to 9 of geomagnetic activity based on data from a set of specific stations.Available for these objects: Scenario

Data Provider Elements
| Name | Dimension | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time | Date | Real Number or Text | Time. |
| F10 Data Source | Unitless | Text | Source of F10.7 data reported from flux file. |
| F10 Measurement Type | Unitless | Text | The type of F10.7 solar flux, either Adjusted or Observed, being used from the space weather source. Adjusted values represent the value at a constant distance of 1 AU, while observed values represent the flux at the distance of the Earth from the Sun at the reported time. |
| F10 | Unitless | Real Number | F10.7 flux value at the requested time. |
| F10 Average | Unitless | Real Number | Average F10.7 flux value at the requested time. |
| F10 Adjusted | Unitless | Real Number or Text | The adjusted F10.7 flux value, at the requested time, if available from the space weather source (else reports "N/A"). Adjusted values represent the value at a constant distance of 1 AU rather than at the distance of the Earth from the Sun at the reported time. |
| F10 Observed | Unitless | Real Number or Text | The observed F10.7 flux value, at the requested time, if available from the space weather source (else reports "N/A"). Observed values represent the value at the distance of the Earth from the Sun at the reported time. |
| F10 Average Adjusted | Unitless | Real Number or Text | The sliding window average of the adjusted F10.7 flux value, at the requested time, if available from the space weather source (else reports "N/A"). Adjusted values represent the value at a constant distance of 1 AU rather than at the distance of the Earth from the Sun at the reported time. |
| F10 Average Observed | Unitless | Real Number or Text | The sliding window average of observed F10.7 flux value, at the requested time, if available from the space weather source (else reports "N/A"). Observed values represent the value at the distance of the Earth from the Sun at the reported time. |
| GeoMagFlux Data Source | Unitless | Text | Source of geomagnetic flux data reported from flux file. |
| Ap Daily | Unitless | Real Number | The daily Ap value at the requested time. |
| Kp Daily | Unitless | Real Number | The daily Kp value at the requested time. |
| Ap 0-3 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Ap 3-6 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Ap 6-9 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Ap 9-12 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Ap 12-15 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Ap 15-18 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Ap 18-21 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Ap 21-24 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Ap value at the requested time. |
| Kp 0-3 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
| Kp 3-6 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
| Kp 6-9 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
| Kp 9-12 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
| Kp 12-15 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
| Kp 15-18 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
| Kp 18-21 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
| Kp 21-24 | Unitless | Real Number | A 3-hour average Kp value at the requested time. |
